Can democracy flourish in Muslim society? What does the Qur'an say
about women, minorities, human rights? Are Islam and the West on a
collision course? After 9/11, much has been written about the
inevitability of a clash between Islam and the West, as their
worldviews compete for global supremacy. Recent developments have
done little to challenge this thesis, or the West's negative image
of Islam. The author compares and contrasts contributions from
"traditional" and progressive" Muslims. Voicing at least two Muslim
opinions in each area of debate, this hook challenges the idea that
all Muslims think identically. While Muslim and Modernity is
designed primarily for use a n undergraduate textbook, reference to
accessible Internet material, to literature and to popular as well
as scholarly sources will broaden its appeal to a general
readership. This book's discussion draws on post-colonial theory,
feminist analyses, anthropology, cultural and religious studies,
politics and philosophy.
